I used fish a nearby irrigation reservoir in Colorado. There were lots of 8"-10" Crappie and I liked to wear my chest waders and fish for them in a favored spot prespawn. While fishing, I would feel a bump every now and then. Really spooked me the first couple of times but later noticed a dandy 4-5 lb LMB trying to take a crappie off my stringer. This continued until the bite slowed and I went home.
